From Clients

Jessica hired Liz as an independent midwife in 2011
“You have given me something so precious, a belief in myself as a “goddess” and birthing mother and facilitated the best birth for my son Croyde that I ever hoped and wishes for. To say you are a consummate professional is an understatement. I feel privileged to know you and to have had your care and guidance and support through one of the most special moments of my life.”

Eve hired Liz as an Independent Midwife in 2008
“I am so glad I found Liz when I was looking for an independent midwife. I have a hospital phobia, which made the prospect of giving birth at hospital extremely troubling for me, and Liz was there every step of the way in negociating a homebirth with the hospital. Everything she did was designed to make us feel as relaxed and comfortable with the process, and as a result she enabled us to have a home birth, even though our son was early and upside down! What would have been a traumatic birth experience in hospital, was an incredibly calm and relaxed experience and I put that down to Liz and her support. The aftercare she provided for us was also second to none – I don’t know how I would have coped if she hadn’t been there for me. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Liz to anyone.”

Sheree and Craig
“Your professionalism and expertise kept us calm and focused, and your sense of humour kept a smile on our faces”

Laura and Kevin
“We feel very lucky to have had such a positive birth experience and really appreciate your willingness to accommodate our wishes throughout. We really feel we had the birth we dared to hope for and we thank you for your calm approach in allowing that to happen.”

Nicole and Adam hired Liz as an Independent Midwife in 2007
“Liz is a wonderful warm, friendly, compassionate and confidence-givng professional. I felt completely safe in her hands and had the wonderful, relaxed, empowering homebirth I hoped for, and I put a lot of it down to her calm expertise. The aftercare was fantastic, and I felt I could ask anything. She shared one of the most amazing experiences of my life and helped make it special. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.”

Joy and Richard hired Liz as an Independent Midwife in 2007
“Liz is not only a well-informed, diligent and thorough professional, she is also a lovely person who got on well with 3 generations of the family, supported us through very emotional times and became a good friend. She went well beyond the call of duty; visiting often, taking time to talk around points of interest, and providing books and DVDs. We didn’t just get the safe, speedy and relaxed homebirth we wanrted, we also got 7 months of excellent support.”

Kath and Kenn hired Liz as an Independent Midwife in 2007
“In the most important months of your life, where emotions, anxieties, irrational concerns fill sleepless nights the security and confidence that having Liz at your side brings is priceless. I have not met a more dedicated, experienced, attentive and helpful healthcare professional. To say that Liz is value for money demeans what she does. Do not even consider going through childbirth without Liz at your side.”


Endorsements from Colleagues

Sarah Ifill, Independent Midwife
“I cannot recommend Liz highly enough. For me she embraces everything a true midwife should be- family focused, caring, sensitive, warm sense of humour, and at the same time astute, meticulous and probably the most informed midwife I have ever met. Furthermore she passes on her vast knowledge of research in a most humble and cordial manner to empower both women and other health professionals. Families she has worked with have been blessed by her skill and expertise- she is wonderful at empowering and nurturing a belief in women so they feel they can rely on their amazing bodies and also have a voice that can be heard. Working with Liz has without doubt been the highlight of my 20 years as a midwife: she is an inspiration to other midwives. As a colleague and a friend, I hope to enjoy working with her for many years to come. I would recommend her to anyone, and she would be my choice as midwife should I ever need those services again.”

Sue Kinross, Independent Midwife
“Liz brings joy and love to the midwifery profession.. I have found her to be the most supportive of colleagues and an amazing birth companion. I look forward to working alongside her again. Any time!”

Katharine Graves, Hypnobirthing Teacher
“Liz’s professional knowledge and personal empathy makes her an outstanding midwife. The service an independent midwife gives is priceless, and your baby’s very best start in life.”
